after the whole Garland issue and being suspended this past weekend for a locker room incident, I felt a lot better at our chances for getting Romeo. After the article, I feel like we are in second(behind Kansas). I think Archie needs to continue to improve the current team in all areas and make them statistically look better come spring time when Romeo decides to commit to help his decision in choosing IU. Romeo hides is feelings really well, but just my two cents.

Say Shittu commits to Vandy, as well as Garland. They have two top 20 players and another player by the name of Aaron Nesmith(ranked 100 on 24/7). These three will not get them to say an elite 8 or sweet 16 appearance. Even adding Romeo to this team I do not think(IMO) that its a elite 8 team or better(maybe a sweet 16 at best). Yes it does make them really good and will compete for a possible SEC championship along with UK, but not a national contender.
Say Garland and Romeo both commit to IU, it makes IU close to a immediate contender.

I feel like there are alot of voices that are close to DG that are giving their input when being asked about the situation, and some people are running with it regardless if its true or not.
If he chooses Vandy it sucks but we still have a really good recruiting class incoming, plus possibly Romeo. I think the outlook for the future for him as a person and player is better should he choose IU. We shall see here soon!

I agree, I think the "stay home and be a legend" thing will be pushed towards Romeo more, I would imagine the treatment will be pretty equal. Seems Archie really gets to know the kids and family, as opposed to other coaches that may not

Fingers crossed they do not commit once the Vandy visit is complete. I believe if it is truly between Vandy and IU for Darius, Darius will want to see what IU is about in person during one of their biggest events for basketball, especially since he lived in Indiana and his dad has some history with IU. I believe for Romeo it will be between UL and IU but I don't see him committing anytime soon unless he is absolutely blown away.
